PRE-REGISTRATION ADVISING (March & October)

Before registration opens, advising holds will be placed on all students' accounts. 

Here's how to prepare:

• Check your assigned enrollment date and time in MyPack Portal. Check the full Enrollment Schedule here. 

• Schedule your registration advising appointment early.

• Update your Pack Planner AND your Shopping Cart before our meeting.

Why update both?

• Pack Planner feeds your Degree Audit and keeps you on track to graduate.

• Shopping Cart checks for course conflicts and registration issues.

ADVISING REMINDERS

• S/U Grading Reminder: Only E 115 and HES courses can be taken S/U and still count towards your degree. 

  • Always consult with me first before switching a class to S/U!

• Grade Exclusions: Always email me first before submitting a grade exclusion. These have permanent impacts on your degree audit and cannot be undone once submitted.

• CHE 497: If required as part of a concentration curriculum, this does not meet as a regular course. This is independent research with a CBE faculty mentor. To request enrollment, please email Emily Resk (emily_resk@ncsu.edu) and copy the faculty mentor + 1) confirm you have discussed with the mentor the requirements for CHE 497 credit which include 150 lab hours, or approximately 10 hours/week, and a final graded deliverable; and 2) include a brief description of your project. If requesting to work with someone outside the department, the project must have a clear Chemical Engineering component. 

• Swap to Waitlist: If seeking to enroll in a class + join the waitlist for an alternate section, follow the Swap to Waitlist procedure to avoid MyPack errors.
